Pogo said, "We have met the enemy, and they is us". As developers, we get modern messaging, dialect and style (distributed + soft architecture + reuse) technology, but we ask for old fashioned libraries, objects, and SDK. It is old bad habits we all have to break. Anyway, there is no need for any "battle". Just do it right this time. Let's not be so concerned what outsiders think of what we are doing. We have advantages that put us ahead. As Dale Carnegie said, the only way to win an argument is to not have one. You don't change the current world, you make a new world. Steve Shireman
